Within the study population, 12,609 patients were identified as having had an exacerbation episode; these cases were matched by age and gender to up to three controls each, resulting in 35,299 controls.

When using the stricter criterion of body mass index ≥40 for the control group and matching up to three controls per case (n=2392 6818; mean body mass index 32.5 v 43.2; P<0.001), the excess risk of preterm birth was further attenuated but remained higher in post-bariatric surgery births (9.4% (224/2371) v 7.5% (508/6758); risk difference 1.9%, 0.6% to 3.3%; P=0.03).
